I _think_ what this will do is allow me to do my CVSup any time I want,
then do "cvs update ..." on my local machine. Working changes I have
made _won't_ get erased (as they do when you work directly in your CVSup
target area), but rather cvs will show them as modified. It may be that
I _only_ want the cvs repository, and then can set my local CVSROOT to
point at it.

Will let you know; I've got the cvs repository downloaded now...
